Buy them now, before it gets hot---stock up on the vaccines, it saves on shipping and they keep in the fridge.

New Castle is an easy vaccine. You can dropper into their eye or nasal cavity--or do aerosol spray.

What is your Serama coop going to look like? When I make one its going to be mineature just like them. I envision something that I can just tip up to clean under.

I think I will have enough scrap wood to build a brooder. Or 2. I already have lights I can use. Oh me O my I've got chicken math brain. Logic getting fuzzy...possibilities seem endless...

We are going to make it similar to the big one, just probably about 3 feet wide and 40 inches deep ... the same height, but will be two levels, and the whole front will open up for easy cleaning. Haven't decided if we are going to build or buy nest boxes. I'm going to still do sand for the bottom at this point. Of course we will use better lumbar than the big one's roof and sides - LOL! I'm sure at some point we will "have" to shingle it too, but maybe not just this minute ... we will see! We are going to replant our garden too, since most of our veggies got killed with the frost. We will be having a fun time outside the next two days

I had to take the whole week off (except yesterday) since we don't have anyone to watch Karsen when school is out ... not unhappy about it at all!
I'm going to Waddell on Thursday still to get the pullets from the two breeders, then to Casa Grande Friday morning for the cockerel ... I know you can't do Thursday, but what about Friday am? Oh, the Pinal County Fair is on starting Wednesday, might be fun to go to it one day too

I have the kids with me on Thursday and Friday, maybe they need a road trip and a picnic. No new chickens yet though. Do they sell eggs?
